We are seeing small gains and big losses in Live Accounts. And it may get worse ...
My big loss is my fault not EA. finimej has enough also detected that not trading on Sunday. Since it can go wrong. Late i failed on Wednesday 18 mars. I start trading already 19 and failed an economic news that each red. Became of course minus on the account. Now, I will hold the eyes open it.

Happy trading.....
Dollars or whatever account currency is.
Hello, what kind of value does the TargetEquity stand for?
Percent, Pips, Dollars?
regards
cash4u2means: Account Equity More Than TargetEquity, in Dollars or whatever your account currency is.
yes, topgirl, you are right.
Keep watch the new calender, do not use it during the new release time 1 hour before or after.
do not use it during the sonday night. Keeping an eye on it during the monday night as well.
Dollars or whatever account currency is.....
JStein, good info.. hope you will continue your methodic explanation for each line, it is so useful and open to discussion an perhaps the start of an amendment to the coding..hope so!
I also demo traded on Sunday night, EURGBP, EURUSD, USDCHF, not a disaster but a bit of a set back good results in general but at the end two trades on EURUSD and one on USDCHF closed with a loss.
When we complete JStein lines explanation we can compare settings..I guess.
Thanks and success to all.
Next settings
ok,
the next few settings:
LotsOptimized = TRUE;
- if True the lotsize per trade will be calculated as follows:
FreeMargin * Risk / size of 1 Lot in base-currency /
MaxTrades,
- if False, the given lotsize (see below) will be used.
Auto_LotsDecimal = TRUE;
- if True, the number of decimals will be calculated
(0.01 -> 2, or 0.1 -> 1)
- if False, the given decimals (see below) will be used.
LotsDecimal = 0;
- see Auto_LostDecimal.
Risk = 20;
- see above formula for LotsOptimized.
Lots = 0.1;
- see above formula for LotsOptimized.
MaxLots = 0.0;
- max. allowed Lotsize.
others following soon .....
I'm a little bit older than you and have seen a lot of EAs, even some better. I never said, the EA is bad because I am testing it also a long time. I also explained, why rdb should post his source: it is easy to decompile it and to sell it, as a lot of people (also some who post in this thread) do. The easiest way to avoid this is to share code and nobody buys it anymore. Why cant he run his EA with live account and post his statement ?
What is the reason, not to explain us how his EA works (see my last post) ??
You ar4e right with the last 2000 stupid posts but how shall I help him ?? I Idon't know anything about this EA.
And now: good bye to all, as Quicksilver said: I have to to better things ...And now : good bye to all ??
?????
nwin,
never say never again.. JStein is a very good contributor, he may have been irritated by some nonsense going here.. it goes to his credit to bring some good methodology in an area which got astray.... smile (in a positive way !)
Good pips, we shall succeed.
next settings
the next few:
AutoRange_SL = TRUE;
- influences SL, if False the given StopLoss will be used,
- if True, SL will be calculated, but I didn't figure out how.
I think, Per_RangeD_SL is involved ??!!
StopLoss = 28.0;
- used if AutoRange_SL is False.
AutoRange_TP = TRUE;
- seems to control SL OutSession (!!??, mistake ?) and
TP.
if False the given TakeProfit and SL_OutSession will be
used.
if True, SL will be calculated, but I didn't figure out how.
I think, Per_RangeD_SL_Out and Per_RangeD_TP are
involved
SL_OutSession = 32.0;
TakeProfit = 5.0;
- see aboveAutoRange_TP
AccountProfitClose = TRUE;
- if True, close all open trades after "MinuteForClose" ) if
some AccountProfit is reached, but don't know, how this
is calculated..
MinuteForClose = 1;
- see above.
Trading on sunday
And to answer question about trading on sunday:
- my tests show no big losses on sunday and overall there are more wins ( = profit) on sundays than losses.
(Demo account with Alpari UK, 5 pips spread.)
